There is a large class of men i'll Washington
who are in a most inpecunious condition and
who make heavy drafts upon the purses and
patience of those with whom they manage to
become acquainted. Some have been ro-
tated out of official duties, which has untitled
them for any other business Others imagine
that the party in power owes them an office
either at home or abroad and some have
claims which, if allowed, would make them
wealthy, but all wait, and it has been truth
fully said that they are getting broker and
"broker" every day. They sleep in cheap
lodgings, eat where it is convenient and drink
every time they are asked. They are good
fellows for the most part, and they were once

stuck fast in Washington and cannot get
